Pain pain and more pain

I have carpal tunnel!!!! I've always known I've had it, very mildly, first came on when pregnant with Child number 1.
But now, at the latter stages of pregnancy with Child Number 3, it has hit me...big time! My hands and feet have puffed up, and are so swollen that I cannot make a fist or link my fingers together, and the pain in my right hand especially....that's right, my throwing hand. I can only manage a couple of rows at a time, or in the case of my Jo sharp vest that has cabling, a couple of stitches.....sob sob sob
All I can hope is that when the bubba comes out it takes away the carpel tunnel with it...but then of course I'll have no time to knit....
